Knowledge shopping

Person who uses others knowledge as there own for commercial purposes, without paying person or persons for knowledge accrued
John offered an interview to a candidate through a recruitment agency So that he could find out how to design a square, because he'd never designed a square before, and didn't want to get sacked by his boss for a lack of skills and knowledge he couldn't be bothered to update. So John knowledge shopped the skills from an undergraduate pretending he had a job on offer when he didn't. This practice is called knowledge shopping.

Shopping angel

Usually performed by women, spending all day shopping and carrying home all the vast bags they now own. Throw themselves in amongst them all and wave their arms and legs about to resemble an angel. Typically done due for over-exhausted excitement!
Sally spent all day shopping, carrying home 2 to the dozen of bags. Finally back home and feeling exhausted, the first thing she did on returning home is throw herself in amongst all her bags and did a shopping angel.

Abandon Shop

As with "Abandon Ship," this refers to bailing/abandoning a shopping cart full of merchandise at Home Depot/Lowes/Walmart/supermarket/anywhere because:

1) the check-out lines are too long,
2) the Cashiers are obviously "dragging their feet" in opposition to Management,
3) One or two Customers are "dragging their feet" as Consumers-Armed-with-Coupons, and, invariably, debate the price on each and every item, and
4) you've loaded up on things that you need/want/desire/but-can't-really-afford-except-outrageous-credit-card-terms...
So you push aside the basket, walk out, drive home, and make dinner with various and weird frozen foods cooked in one pot..."welcome, again, to your college-/first-job days!"
T: "Man, I had about a buck-fifty of yard tools, car supplies, my kids' new underwears, and a nighty for my lady..."
A: "Well, le'me see the nighty, bro'..."
T: "Cain't, bro...I Abandon Shopped when I saw the checkout line and had time to realize that I'd be paying for this basket, at 21% interest, for the next 10 years."
A: "Aw, that's cool, cool and W-I-S-E, bruh! So, you got the $5 you owe me, then, right?"
